According to the Australian Financial Review :p

Scalped fans eBaying for blood
The Australian Financial Review --- Page: 3 : 28 September 2007
Original article by Julian Bajkowski

LexisNexis Summary
Some sports spectators in Australia are resorting to eBay to get tickets for popular events. Australian Football League (AFL) fans are posting "wanted" advertisements on eBay to get tickets to see the Adelaide Crows versus Geelong Cats match on 29 September 2007. This action bypasses Victorian laws, which do not allow eBay to offer AFL tickets for resale at hefty prices. There are no similar laws in New South Wales (NSW). Fans of the National Rugby League (NRL) in NSW can resort to eBay to buy tickets directly for the big games. eBay in Australia admits that it has lobbied against anti-scalping laws, where a "scalper" charges a hefty price for a ticket being onsold. Fans of the AFL are angry that corporate sponsors get pre-allocated seats at the AFL Grand Final, crowding out fans

Whoops, do they use the same fact checkers as the Advertiser?
